4. TERMINATION PRIOR TO ANY NORMAL VESTING DATE. Notwithstanding Section 3 hereof but subject to the notice and release requirements set forth in this Section 4:

(a) Termination Due to Death or Disability. If the Participant’s employment with the Corporation Party (defined below) is terminated due to the Participant’s death or Disability prior to any Normal Vesting Date, then any unvested RSUs subject to this Award shall become vested as of the date of the Participant’s termination of employment.

(b) Termination Involuntarily Without Cause. If the Participant’s employment with the Corporation Party is involuntarily terminated without Cause (as defined in the Severance Pay Plan for Eligible Employees of Gentherm Incorporated, as amended from time to time or any replacement plan), and not due to the Participant’s death or Disability, at least 12 months after the Grant Date and prior to the final Normal Vesting Date, then any unvested RSUs subject to this Award that are scheduled to vest within 12 months of such termination date shall vest on such termination date.

(c) Retirement. If the Participant’s employment with the Corporation Party is terminated due to such Participant’s Retirement at least nine months after the Grant Date and prior to the final Normal Vesting Date (the “Retirement Date”), then any unvested RSUs subject to this Award shall continue to vest on and following the Retirement Date in accordance with Section 3 hereof. For purposes of this Section 4(c):

(i) “Retirement” means (i) the termination of the Participant’s employment with the Corporation Party was (a) voluntarily made by the Participant, or (b) mutually agreed upon by between the Participant and the Corporation Party, and, in each case, without Cause (as determined by the Committee, in its Discretion), (ii) the Participant has either (a) attained a minimum age of 65 or (b) attained a minimum age of 60 and a minimum of 70 total years (including Years of Service to the Corporation and any Subsidiary plus the age of the Participant), in each case as of the Retirement Date, and (iii) the Participant has provided six (6) months prior notice (or such shorter period authorized by the Committee in its Discretion) of such Participant’s consideration of retirement to the Corporation Party (or to the Board, if the Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act).

(ii) “Years of Service” means a Participant’s total number of years of employment with the Corporation and any Subsidiary based on a period of employment beginning on the Participant’s first date of hire by the Corporation or a Subsidiary and ending on the Retirement Date; provided that, Years of Service shall not include any period of a Participant’s employment with a Subsidiary or a business acquired by the Corporation prior to the date that such Subsidiary or business was acquired by the Corporation.

(d) “Corporation Party” means the entity among the Company and its Subsidiaries by which the original recipient of this Award is, or following a termination was most recently, principally employed.

(e) Forfeiture. The vesting of unvested RSUs under this Section 4 is conditioned upon the Participant (or, in the case of the Participant’s death, an executor or administrator of the Participant’s estate) signing and delivering to the Corporation, and there becoming irrevocable, within 30 days after the date of such employment termination, a general release of claims (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Corporation) by which the Participant releases the Corporation and its affiliated entities and individuals from any claim arising from the Participant’s employment by, and termination of employment with, the Corporation and its Subsidiaries, in consideration for the receipt and vesting of the RSUs. Any RSUs that would have otherwise vested under this Section 4 shall be forfeited if the general release does not become effective and irrevocable on or before the 30th day following the Participant’s termination of employment.

5. CHANGE IN CONTROL. Notwithstanding Section 3 hereof but subject to the notice and release requirements set forth below in this Section 5, if there is a Change in Control prior to any Normal Vesting Date, and if within three months prior to or 12 months after the Change in Control, the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Corporation or a Subsidiary (or a successor thereof) without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason, any unvested RSUs at the time of such termination of employment shall become vested upon such termination of employment. The vesting of unvested RSUs under this Section 5 is conditioned upon the Participant signing and delivering to the Corporation, and there becoming irrevocable, within 30 days after the date of such employment termination, a general release of claims (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Corporation) by which the Participant releases the Corporation and its affiliated entities and individuals (including any successor thereof) from any claim arising from the Participant’s employment by, and termination of employment with, the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (including any successor thereof), in consideration for the receipt and vesting of the RSUs. Any RSUs that would have otherwise vested under this Section 5 shall be forfeited if the general release does not become effective and irrevocable on or before the 30th day following the Participant’s termination of employment.

“Good Reason” means in respect of the Corporation and the Subsidiaries and without the Participant’s consent: (i) the occurrence of a material diminution in the Participant’s authority, duties, or responsibilities (other than temporarily while the Participant is physically or mentally incapacitated or as required by applicable law); (ii) a material adverse change in the reporting structure applicable to the Participant, provided that a change in Participant’s hybrid working arrangement shall not constitute a relocation for purposes of this definition; (iii) a relocation of the Participant’s principal place of employment by more than 50 miles; or (iv) a material reduction in the Participant’s aggregate base

2

salary and target bonus (other than a general reduction that affects all similarly situated executives in substantially the same proportions); provided, however, that the Participant shall be considered to have terminated employment for Good Reason only if (A) the Participant provides notice to the Corporation of the event or condition meeting the foregoing definition of Good Reason within 30 days after the initial occurrence of such event or condition, (B) the Corporation or the applicable Subsidiary fails to correct such event or condition within 30 days of receiving notice thereof from the Participant, and (C) the Participant terminates employment with the Corporation and the Subsidiaries within 30 days after the expiration of such correction period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant and the Corporation or any Subsidiary have entered into an employment, offer letter, retention, change in control, severance or other similar agreement that specifically defines “Good Reason,” then with respect to the Participant, “Good Reason” shall have the meaning defined in such agreement.

6. FORFEITURE. Upon the Participant’s termination of employment with the Corporation and its Subsidiaries for any reason prior to any Normal Vesting Date, any RSUs that do not become vested in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including Sections 4 and 5 hereof) shall be immediately canceled and forfeited for no consideration as of the Participant’s termination of employment. Any RSUs that are outstanding but do not become vested on the third and final Normal Vesting Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be cancelled and forfeited for no consideration as of such date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Committee may, in its Discretion, accelerate the vesting of all or a portion of the RSUs subject to this Award as of or prior to any cancellation or forfeiture thereof.

7. SETTLEMENT OF RSUS. Subject to the withholding tax provisions of Section 11 hereof and Section 15(h) of the Plan, within 45 days after the date upon which an RSU becomes vested in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Corporation shall issue or transfer to the Participant stock certificates or, if applicable, book-entry registration, one share of Common Stock per each vested RSU; provided, however, if RSUs vest in accordance with Section 5 hereof, the Corporation (or a successor thereto) shall issue or transfer to the Participant such shares of Common Stock or common stock of the successor having approximately equivalent value (and references herein to Common Stock issued on vesting shall include such successor common stock, if applicable), or the cash equivalent of such shares of Common Stock or common stock if neither security is listed on a U.S. national securities exchange (including Nasdaq or the New York Stock Exchange).

8. RIGHTS AS SHAREHOLDER. Until and if shares of Common Stock are issued in settlement of vested RSUs, the Participant shall not have any rights of a shareholder (including voting and dividend rights) in respect of the Common Stock underlying the RSUs; provided, however, the Committee, in its Discretion, shall pay unvested RSUs with dividend or distribution equivalents equal to the amount of dividends and distributions, if any, that are paid on that number of shares with respect to the RSUs granted hereunder, in accordance with Section 15(g)(iv) of the Plan and any other conditions, limitations and other restrictions determined by the Committee.

9. ADJUSTMENTS. In the event of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split up, spin-off, combinations, exchange of shares or reorganization of or by the Corporation affecting this Award, the rights of the Participant will be adjusted as provided in Section 5(e) of the Plan.

10. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF AWARD. Without the express written consent of the Committee, which may be withheld for any reason in its Discretion, neither the RSUs nor any interest in the RSUs may be assignable, alienable, saleable, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or transferable by the Participant, except for a transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution as a result of the death of the Participant; provided that, unless approved by shareholders, in no event shall any Award be transferable for consideration. The terms of the Plan and this Agreement shall be binding upon the Participant’s executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns. Any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or borrow against the RSUs in violation of this Section 10 in any manner shall be null and void and without legal force or effect.

11. WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS. The Participant shall be responsible for all taxes required by law to be withheld by the Corporation or a Subsidiary in respect of the grant, vesting or settlement of the RSUs, and the Corporation may make any arrangements it deems appropriate to ensure payment of any such tax by the Participant. The Committee may, in its Discretion, permit the Participant to satisfy such withholding obligations in accordance with Section 18(a) of the Plan.

The Participant understands that Data will be transferred to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Lynch, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇ Inc., and its related companies (“▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇”) or any stock plan service provider as may be selected by the Corporation in the future, which is assisting the Corporation with the implementation, administration and management of the Plan.

21. RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS; COMPENSATION RECOVERY; OTHER POLICIES. By signing this Agreement, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that this Award or any Award previously granted to the Participant by the Corporation or a Subsidiary shall be subject to forfeiture as a result of the Participant’s violation of any agreement with the Corporation regarding non-competition, non-solicitation, confidentiality, inventions and/or other restrictive covenants (the “Restricted Covenant Agreements”). For avoidance of doubt, compensation recovery rights to shares of Common Stock (including such shares acquired under previously granted equity awards) shall extend to the proceeds realized by the Participant due to the sale or other transfer of such shares.

22. CODE SECTION 409A. It is intended that this Award be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in a manner which effectuates such intent; provided, however, that in no event shall the Corporation or any Subsidiary be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalty imposed upon or other damage suffered by the Participant on account of this Award being subject to but not in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
